About Me

Currently teaching in Guangzhou. Last year I worked in Shijiazhuang, but I could not stand the cold for another year : )

Been a big fan of travelling since University. I lived in Flagstaff Arizona for a semester during my second year, and I went to live in Bangkok during a summer teaching placement soon after. Since then I have had a huge passion for living abroad, experiencing new cultures and learning new languages. Due to the demand for English teachers out here, I have lived in China since my graduation, and I'm planning on staying for at least another at least :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in need of cheap accommodation while travelling around China, and the chance of meeting locals and people used to the cities I'm visiting is a chance too good to miss.
